Finally answering my most FAQ....

Elite Dangerous: Odyssey

Today. Live on Twitch.

5pm BST/ 6pm CEST/ 9am PT/ 11am CT/ 12 noon EDT

It's been 5 years since I played. About time I got to grips with Space Legs!!!
Kolo, a white woman with ginger curly hair and glasses looks up to the corner with her head resting on her hand. Around her is a collection of screenshots of comments from YouTube, Twitch, Instagram and TikTok in which users talk about Elite Dangerous. The screenshotted comments request in various ways that that Kolo plays Elite Dangerous, or asks when she will be playing it, or if she still plays it, or specifically requests streams of Elite Dangerous: Odyssey

YouTube is using AI to suggest responses to comments people make on my videos.

It's must be trained on previous responses as it's using words & emojis I regularly use.

I hate it. I just want to be a human making content for humans & can't find the off switch

Does anyone know how to turn this off?

No way?! Thanks Twitch!
Screenshot from Twitch Dashboard showing the cover artwork for Baldur's Gate 3, alongside text that reads "Did you know? 3% of your viewers also watch Baldur's Gate 3. If you also like it, try it out on a stream!" Then lower down it asks "was this useful?" Screenshot of the website Twitch Tracker. Text reads "List of games streamed by HelloItsKolo", then underneath it shows Baldur's Gate 3 with a total stream time of 242 hours.

Baldur's Gate 3 is possibly the best AND the most absurd game I've ever played.

Last night I got Sarevok down first try after 90 mins, suuuper clutch. Hardest fight in the game so far... but now I have to re-do the entire thing because I accidently upset a flying elephant 😂

I love this game 😂
screenshot from Kolo's stream showing Baldur's Gate 3 gameplay and Kolo's facecam in the top right. Kolo has her head in her hands. The gameplay is very dark but shows the character Valeria; a flying elephant with wings and a little hat, flying in the air. At the bottom of the screenshot the text reads "Narrator: This individual doesn't seem particularly fond of you. Perhaps a gift would improve their sentiment"

New haircut, new profile picture, still very ginger ✨

Achievement unlocked: Stardew Valley Perfection!!

After hundreds of hours in solo, burning out after ginger island... It turns out co-op Stardew is the way to play!

Perfection complete on Winter 25, year 5!

This writing. Hilarious.

It me. I'm Fable.

Tavern Talk by @gentletrolldevs.bsky.social is a relatable masterpiece. Strong recommend from me!!
Screenshot from the game Tavern Talk. An elf character, Fable, sits at a bar and looks to one side, anxiously. Text box for Fable reads "And I have to fight the werewolf. Or talk to the werewolf. Which is worse."

I get these "YOURE CLAIMING..." comments all the time on my Skyrim playthrough & 9/10 times the poster deletes them after 10 mins

I think it's cause it takes approx 5 mins to realize no one would fake being as clueless about this game as I was 😂

YES it was my first play & chaos & I loved it! 🐉

Was it an omen? A threat? A sign of things to come?

... or was I just getting the worst rolls out of the way as soon as possible? 😂

Thank you for introducing me to TTRPG, @tablestory.tv !🥹❤️

... and of course a shout out to the GM of doom @wacksteven.bsky.social 😂

Minami Lane is a damn DELIGHT.

If you enjoy Indie games, cosy management games, cute animals, short games you can 100% in a handful of hours...

And if you enjoy games like Animal Crossing or Stardew... you'll love this.

Plays super well on steam deck too!
@dodoot.bsky.social your game is a JOY 🥹❤️
Cartoon style street lined with trees, narrowing to a vanishing point in the distance. The text reads "Minami Lane". A tanuki in the foreground smiles widely and gives the peace sign with one hand in game image of Minami Lane. It is pastel/autumnal coloured and various buildings line one side of the street. There is also a park, treehouse style building and a bookshop.

Turns out BG3 was not at all ready for me 😂
Screenshot of a YouTube comment from user lucasxfiuza. It reads "What just happened??? BG3 is a massive game full of fail-safes and scenarios intended for less than 1% of players, and yet just the right amount of chaos and clever thinking was able to break reality. Well done!"

Loads of people have said this recently... it's so accurate!

Yes I DO want to roll to try and help people in literally every video game I play, and then have the game tell me "you can certainly try..."

This comment wasn't even on a BG3 video, it was on a Fallout one! Nail on the head.
Screenshot of a YouTube comment that reads "I love that you can tell that she's a dnd player and that she is playing the game like she would dnd."

Is it too late to post my Halloween costume here? 👀
I made this myself, after years of wanting to do a poison ivy cosplay, and I'm so pleased with how it turned out! 🍃❤️
Kolo, a white woman with curly ginger hair dressed as poison ivy. She wears a corset made of overlapping ivy leaves, a green ribbon choker necklace covered in ivy leaves, and her hair is strewn with ivy vines. She has an ivy leaf stuck to each side of her glasses, and vines are entwined over the black sleeves that cover her arms. She leans forwards in her wheelchair. Same subject as previous image, but Kolo leans over her legs which are thick black patterned material. Same subject. Kolo holds her hand up outstretched behind her head and snarls at the camera
